In May 2007, when I was 5th class in primary school, the school turned 25 years old, and we had a concert. At that concert, they hired a pianist and a drummer to accompany the various musical/drama scenes that each class put on. I remember being enthralled by the drums. People can make music like [...]
In Music, we’re currently making notes on the set songs for our Junior Cert. So far, we’ve done Preab san Ól, an Irish Drinking Song preaching to us to spend all our money now on drink, cos we can’t take any of it to the grave. Marks for being technically true.. The second one that [...]

For example, California Dreamin’ by the Mamas and the Papas, Males: All the leaves [...]
